Web 2.0 & Social Media Videos

Web 2.0 & Social Media Videos

These videos do a pretty good job of explaining their points.
The Web 2.0 video still lost me on the technical terms - with more info, I may understand. They mentioned that apps like YouTube, Flickr, and Yahoo are part of their interface; that it's intended to be a rich user interface, with interlinking parts (which those apps are).
The Social Media video did a great analogy with ice cream and ice cream shops; basically, that what used to be restricted to a few can now be used by all with access to the internet. It has made the world unique and original, and increased communication. Blogs, Podcasts, Videos - are all examples of how people contribute to the universal social media. We can provide feedback and rate all kinds of things; everything is interlinked.
Overall, these were interesting and informative videos!
